Short description

Bringing over our wines to LCB Global from our Terrasses du Larzac vineyard truly makes Château Capion UK a small importer offering differentiation in an increasingly homogenous market. I work for the winery, so you're effectively buying direct when you get behind us. We've been in the UK a while now, and continue to sell principally into well-established off-trade independent retail accounts. In order to remain flexible and relevant in today's market, where small importers such as us face numerous challenges, we offer small batch blends of both well-known and less familiar varieties (most of them vegan), competitive prices for the new Languedoc, a low MOQ and, finally, a proactive and responsive customer service.

Detailed information

Nestling in the renowned Gassac valley near Aniane, and under new ownership since 2016, contemporary Château Capion has already produced a range of reds, whites and rosés that are helping to forge an entirely new identity for Languedoc wine. Indeed, consultant oenologist Claude Gros has called Capion ‘extraordinary white wine terroir’, and our 2017 white bearing the estate’s name is a Decanter Platinum medal winner (98 points). On 55 hectares across three sites with diverse geological zones around the Terrasses du Larzac, we use the expertise of biodynamic specialists Claude and Lydia Bourguignon to manage soil health and practise sustainable viticulture. We also carry out manual harvesting and micro-parcel selection. Château Capion was certified organic in 2020.
